A Marshall County woman has been arrested after police say she shot and killed her husband.

On November 3 at about 7:01 p.m., Marshall County Central Dispatch received a call from a woman reporting that she had accidentally shot her husband.

It happened in the 1700 block of Horace Barnes Road near Calvert City.

When Deputies William Strader, Cory Curtner, and Sergeant Eddie McGuire arrived, they found 46-year-old Jay Seaford of Calvert City unresponsive.
